S is for Sober. I was told that any fool can stay sober for one day. I wasn't too sure as I was born on April Fool's Day. When I came into recovery, I didn't think I was insane and I knew who God was. When I got to a year sober, I realized I didn't know who God was and went on a spiritual quest to find out who He was to me. I also came to the conclusion that I was totally insane, and it was the thinking behind my addiction that had ruled my life. My son said, "I never saw you drunk Mom." That means, he never saw me sober.
At my house, this meant get out of his way and don't rock his world and give him space.
